Picker Pocketer by Entity2D 2012-12-19T10:23:00
The idea is pretty sweet and I liked your way of implementing the pickpocketing. it requires skill, just like it would in real life! Nice.

Enjoyable art :)! Good gameplay, was a bit hard though. Maybe place the bomb button some where else? :/
Alright; I got around to playing your game, and I really liked it! The storytelling is interesting. The world has its own character, and these two combined give off quite the unique vibe. Personally, it made me feel like on a far away planet, or space station (because of the floaty physics). Bit of a 'doom' / post-apocalyptic feel because of the colors, but not scary! I love these kind of games, reminds me of one of mes's entries, dream forest.
To sum it up:
+ unique, mysterious atmoshphere
+ interesting storytelling (leaves questions open, maybe space for a second part?)
- the spike mechanic was only really "abusable" by killing the boss, so a few more uses might have been implemented
Sum up: Great entry that stays in the head of the player for a bit. Well done!
One of my favorites so far. Very polished, fluid, sweet music, and good controls! Nice gfx.
Nice game!
Found this to be very very hard. Could not get past the second level where an enemy is blocking the way.
Thank you guys:) glad someone enjoyed it and it is working on other peoples pcs. I had some trouble with someone who tested it. If anyone has problems running it, I would really appreciate an error message report so I can try to fix it.
Thanks for the feedback guys, I might work on this some more and make a post-LD version with stuff that was suggested :)
I have planned some kind of upgrading system. For more aoe attacks, more health etc. And lots of more monsters of course. The game is in a very concept-like state right now.
Thanks, everyone! I am very happy about the feedback, and I am working on more :)
@ananasblau Fist of awesome, yes! my game is an indirect demake or something of it. My own fantasy story branch-off. I am glad someone noticed. You could take the bear out of that game and tell his story, this is how I imagined it. Cake & Code also suggested that he does not feel like the villain - The point is that you are the character that is always an enemy in most games. He has no decision over being a villain or not. Maybe he does not even want to. :)
@zenmumbler get on twitter! thank you so much. Yeah, I fixed the sound bug myself but didnt upgrade the sourcefile.
Fixed the mac problem.
@nilstastic .. wow, what?! hahah. Yeah, I guess I might chance it, since ctrl+arrow key does some strange shit on mac. Thanks for the report! And thanks for the feedback everyone.
Thats what I am working on! :) Thanks!
Thanks for reporting, David! @Everyone else, thanks for the feedback :)
@ddionisio yeah, I did not manage to finish these lasts frames. My first LD, I miscalculated the time a bit :(
Hmm, I am missing the "game" in this :/ Running smooth though.
I had some trouble determining what is what :(
After spending 5 minutes trying to get behind the first triangle, I gave up. Sorry but I think its start is way to difficult.
Great game!
Very interesting. Well done, and beautiful style.
Nice art style / graphics. Controls felt a bit clutch, and sometimes the character just stopped walking on a straight line :(
Nice concept, interesting graphics, but I could not finish it :/
Cute game. Quite some bugs though when driving around with the sled, like leaving the sled and being stuck into a wall, or being abe to drive on top of a house. All in all, nice game ! :)
The 3d models are really well done, best I have seen yet! It has its own style, unique and nice colors. The mechanic for the laser is great. Sound effects could use some work. Over all, good job :)!
I liked the graphics and sound! Really nice. A take on the mayans and the end of the world? The only problem was the AI. It looks like he wanted to lose. Maybe he has already given up because of all the people trying to ruin his day! :D
haha! Very cute and funny. Loved the idea , especially with the running away. The throwing against the window was a bit hard.
Well executed :)
Nice graphics!
I liked the unique gameplay and the fact that it is running pretty good! The "messages" are strange but funny!
Beautiful Music. Sounds in the actual game were so awfully loud though, it made it hard to hear. Graphics are really nice! Gameplay wise, did I do it right to call my zombie mates and just run at the enemies and die? A more detailed how-to would have helped. The random generation is a plus for replay-value. All in all a positive experience!
Great idea. Liked the gamplay :) Could use some graphics though. Idea is pretty smart for the theme, I liked that. With some more work I could see something like this be a full game, somewhat like Towerdefense, but with traps. Maybe for every killed hero, you should implement a gold system that allows the player to upgrade stuff.
Enjoyed the graphics and the idea!
Scary :D
Beautiful game, and very satisfying to play.
Very beautiful.
I enjoyed the pre-aiming you had to do. Made me feel badass at times for hitting three in a row. :)
Didnt get far :(
Damn. I turned to stone. I really liked your game. It was fluid, didnt feel clunky at all. Very enjoyable, and the cute art game me a laugh :) Music is a plus too.
Funny game! Nice graphics and gameplay. A bit easy and uneventful though. Maybe make tons of marios and let the barrels roll over them. Anyways, good game.
Funny audio and Idea! I missed a bit of action when pressing the button. The first level had passages of 10 seconds or so just standing around, which was a bit boring. Could have been a bit harder at the start :)
Funny game concept, really liked it. Cute ships, but dumb.
Hi, I liked the idea (gameplay a lot like my entry) it was fun and the aoe skills were fine! Radiance could be a bit stronger maybe :D
Good take on the theme. Fun game!
Hi, you commented my game and told me that it didnt work, can you describe what is happening?
I liked the audio, kinda funny. Gameplay was new end engaging! Graphics was good.
Cute art style. Pretty unique! I found the game very funny. The way the people reacted is hilarious and gives them character :)
I had a hard time dealing with the controls. Other than that, I think its promising!
I like the concept and movement, as well as procedural generation :) I had the problem that mister rock always appears. No matter If I commit a crime or not. He just fucks my day up, no matter what :( Funny game though :D
Hehe, fun Idea, nice graphics!
Hi! Nice platformer. The graphics are cute. A bit blurry maybe, but nonetheless they fit. The postprocessing is a plus, giving it a quite unique look. I felt that the controls were a bit sloppy, raising the difficulty of the game. I could not finished. I got to the moving platforms, which bugged for me. They did not move me at all. Try adding their movement vector to the players. Sadly there was no audio, which could have helped giving a better vibe (old camera rolling sound for example :D). My main concern with this game is the view distance though. There are points where you do not see the next platform. The screen is pretty small compared to the tiles, they are huge. Jumping into the void is not fun. All in all a good game though :)
Beautiful art style. Controls did not feel so fluid though :/ It was pretty hard jumping over the spikes.
Funny dialogue and art :D!
Nice concept, liked the entry :)
Loved the idea, very well programmed and fluid gameplay.
Sweet, well done!
GOod game, but with can be finished really easy if you know how to. Graphics were shiny and nice, gameplay was fluid!
Nice and beautiful!
I liked the game. Was good fun. But relatively easy. Place a few balls at the first hole, and you win :/ If you adjust the difficulty, it could last much longer and be a lot of fun :)
3400! Fun game. I mostly just used the second one.
Graphics are definitely funny! Sound would have been nice :/ The gameplay was very fluid, which I liked.
Very nice idea. Impressive AI!
Absolutely brilliant!
Loved it, funny :D
NIce game! Sweet graphics. beast!
I punched my favorite bar, thats all I managed :/
Really interesting game and Idea. I have never seen this somewhere. Got stuck at level 2 sadly, but I did enjoy it.
This game is awesome. I like the TD-Likeness and the strategical things that come with it. Sweet graphics as well :)
I liked it! Especially cool how the music gets faster.
Looking awesome :) Will try tomorrow when I am back on windows!
I love the idea and art! But I had problems playing it. When using the arrow keys, it would move the whole page, even though the flash app is active :S
Nice Idea and gameplay. Takes a while to learn though, not that easy!
Enjoyed the gameplay, I like bunney-hopping on the yellow enemies.
Quite hard, but I got around it. Nice stuff.
Looking really cute :)
Nice game, but I feel like you should limit the lenght :)
Hi! Nice game. The programming for 48hours is impressive. I imagine its quite hard to make this. I liked the gameplay, It has all the basics of a simple strategy game :) (Except enemies of course - well, yourself maybe :D) Good job
Hey man, pretty hard! Cute graphics :)
I like the basic idea and gameplay. Art is very stylish. Sound is alright! + for Humor. What the hell are the plants in the middle? :D
Hi, The animations of the money-sucking is really nice, it felt very fluid and well animated. As dremelofdeath is saying, it feels really satisfying.
Nice art :)
Hm. I tried to find any interaction, but I could not :( The church = villain?
I absolutely loved the dialogues.
Good art and audio. Interesting and new gameplay. The mouse was a bit laggy for me, sadly.
Beautiful art, very fluid gameplay, well done. The sheep acted a bit strange at time, but then again, they are being eaten.
I liked the Idea and gameplay, but I heard no audio. That could have made it a lot more atmospheric :)
@Tyro, game will be up in a few minutes :)
@juaxix you can refresh the lantern :D! But there is a catch to this game.. It has to do with lantern consumption speed and your movement speed. :)
I like the gameplay and the parallax background, nice :) The sound was really loud, could be toned down a bit. Apart from that, all good!
Well executed game.
Nice and likeable game, had good gameplay. I really liked the way you increased the difficulty. Never hard enough to be frustrating, but always a nice challenge.
Nice game. Fitting the theme. I liked the clues that you gave!
Level 2 was the hardest for some reason :D Good game.
The game has no graphics but you managed to keep me playing longer than most games. Somehow nice to watch, calming and interesting. I now know I cant make a living from fries though. Good job!
As always, amazing work. I like the use of the theme too, haha :)
It was pretty hard, but a nice idea.
Great animation job. Awesome sound. got a HL2 vibe from that sound for some reason, it just felt really "in secrecy". The controls on the char felt a bit slow though. The gameplay ideas were really nice and unique to me. Nice job Mr. Kraft & Mates!
